Crazy request

Browsing through The Art of MTG made me realize I'd really love big versions and/or wallpapers of Sentinels card art too.

(Also I really want to see ¿Quando? ¡Ahora!'s art at this point because everyone keeps talking about it...)

This is a picture of my copy of that card.  https://www.dropbox.com/s/ife50pdl88gbr0b/QuandoAhora.jpg?dl=0

I think this request is best directed (initially) at GtG. A blown-up version of the card art is not going to look great; it would be better to start from their original high-res files.

I would agree and has meant to comment that.  I was posting this more for Jeysie so they had an idea of what was being referenced. 

That's one of the cards that's made Villains La Capitan one of my favorites, but I've never really taken a close look at it before. Who are these people?

On the one side, you've got, like... the Freedom Five, represented by Nightmist, the Dreamer (and awesome ape!), blue woman? (R63 Greazer?), and... a bird?

And then there's, like... Evil Tempest? Setback-who-is-Mr.-Fixer. A far less primal Plague Rat dressed up like a Green Lantern. And maybe some kind of Operative? What the butt?

La Capitan travels through time so who knows what alternate versions of the heroes and villains she sees.  I'd still be curious to see those as well as variant heroes shown in the be the gate art in the OblivAeon ARG.

its one of my favorite cards too

on the left is The Dreamer with her Ape, that might be a Void Shard in its forehead (meaning she might be partially like Idealist?). 

There is I assume The Naturalist (because Green, which all of cards indicate is his color, and has a FV symbol on his chest.) as a Raven, which means he could have Matriarchs Power.

Nightmist has green hair instead of white. And green energy in her hands. And that looks like a reed pipe rigaht there in the center. That might indicate she is the Virtuoso of the Void - given that she has gone to the void, and we know Adept is tightly connected to the Void, that makes some sort of sense.

It might also not be Nightmist, but Harpy who got Nightmists Curse instead. Not sure.

Tachyon as a an Omnitron Robot.

On the Right is Tempest with red lightning, perhaps Empyreon? (red energy bolts). Could also be in connection with Friction? Hard to tell on that one.

Setback combined with Mr Fixer, might have some of Zhu Long's power given the glyph on his chest. 

The girl is Kismet. If you look real close above her shoulder you can see the Talisman.

And of course a heroic Plague Rat

Oh. Plague Rat's uniform looks like Bugbear. Might be a combination of the two. Might not be heroic. THat could be the Dark Watch of another Universe, or it could be the Chairman and his crew of another universe.

Of the "Be the Gate" heroes, the ones I would LOVE to see developed for the game are the Apostate/Fanatic, Cosmic Parse, and maybe Chrono-Kismet (since I'm finally starting to grok Chrono-Ranger).

Thanks Powerhound, the curiosity was starting to get to me after seeing the card mentioned about five zillion times on the forums.

That indeed is an epically cool pic. I love alternate heroes and speculating how they ended up that way.

I think you're right, Lynkfox, that that's Faye as the Virtuoso. I had been wondering why the outfit seemed vaguely familar, and that would be why now that you mention it. It looks like she has a harp frame on her bodice rather than a guitar fret (because harps are feminine, of course...)

Why not Anthony as getting Nightmist's curse? He joins up with a warlock group after they keep coming into his bar all the time as regulars and finally invite him along one day. ;P

Setback as Mr. Fixer is so weird to me. Not nearly as weird as SetLegacy from the Be The Gate comic, though...

Oh yes, I absolutely adore the design of that lady Chrono-Ranger and would love an official variant of her! (I also want to know what the heck Setback Legacy would do...)

Pretty sure the 6 on the D6 on his chest means He's incredibly lucky all the time, meaning that he got ALL of Legacy's powers.

D'oh, you're right, I had trouble making it out before.

Also, if you were going for the feminine term, it's Virtuosa.

You know, I just remembered that Arkham Horror/Elder Sign has another character along with Joe Diamond called Dexter Drake who was a stage magician looking for real magic.

Would this work? 

• Dreamer
• Bubbles (the monkey)
• Naturalist
• Speedtron
• Nightmist, Virtuoso of the Mists
• Baron Tempest
• Lucky Strike
• The Rat
• Kismet

These are the names as I imagine them. 100% that none of these are correct, but it's just my own thing. I think these are all fusions of characters, but some fusions are hard to pick out. Dreamer is tough. Bubbles maybe with Haka? Naturalist with Matriarch? Baron Tempest or maybe Voss-Tempest? Rat and Bugbear? And Kismets fusion is hard to speculate on as well.

@Christopher: You rock. :D

I totally need lots of Sentinels wallpapers to go with my MTG wallpapers.

Now I'm wondering if we should push our luck. :3

A few other cards I could see possibly being interesting wallpapers:

• Silver Shadow
• Syntactic Analysis
• High Risk Behavior
• Apocalypse

• Luminous Leadership
• Fickle Fans
• Inconceivable Obstruction
• Con's Bunker
• Bridge
• Overcharged Systems

Cosmic Rat, I'd think.

Good call on the Virtuoso thing, in the larger image, she's obviously magically wielding panpipes! With an Elder Sign, even!

Still not sure about that robot lady, though... I mean, she looks similar to Tachyon, but I get the nagging feeling she's supposed to be someone else...

That's obviously the (not-so) Treacherous Ape, too, which is why I wasn't initially counting it as part of the five. But you never know...

I didn't know I needed that wallpaper in my life until now.  Thanks!

I'm almost positive that's supposed to be a Unity/Omnitron mix. That definitly fits better than Tachy/Omni to me. Or maybe it's all three mixed together?

Given how many Omnitrons there are in the various multiverses, maybe that literally is just Omnitron-X, who went for the female-gendered body instead of neutral.

With the ponytail and red goggles I assumed it was a Tachyon-Omnitron mix.

Check out Tachy's letters Page in the Tactics timeline spot. She is already shown in this timeline to be prone to altering herself with gadgets and tech to stabalize her body. This omnitron/tachyon mixup (note the pony-tail and lack of any pink color so I think unity is out) already has some pretty solid basis for maybe actually happening at some point far down the road.

After the Tachyon Letters Page actually, it really makes me wonder if the visions shown on this particular card are alt universe characters, or visions of a future that might one day come to pass.

Umm...isn't that her sat on top of the not-so-treacherous ape?

What's up with the blue shoulder pads on that ponytailed robot? They have an Absolute Zero vibe to me. Or are they just an Omnitron signifier?

Also note there seems to be lots of sickly green energy floating around, most prominently in a shard on the Treacherous Ape's forehead, but also in both timelines shown interacting here. Even Adept Nightmist has that sickly green energy, which is a darker green than Argent Adept's effects.

Is the parrot just The Naturalist, or is there a mashup going on there as well?

Where are the chevrons on Cosmic Rat's shoulders from? Is that a Captain Cosmic signifier?

For the record, the Chinese character on Lucky Strike's chest is 運, yùn, fortune, luck, or fate.

I also hope this gets wiki'd.

"Lucky Strike". That's amazing. Very well done!

I don't remember what the heck thread it was in (I just saw it this morning!), but the image of the fully-upgraded Benchmark made me think of the Tachyon-bot here. I wonder if maybe Dr. Stinson hasn't integrated with some RevoCorp technology...

Probably the episode I'm most excited about too! (Which, by Foote's Law, will probably be one of the last character to be covered...! I don't feel like it's a bad thing though, I always eat dessert at the end of the meal anyway!)

The one I'm really looking forward to (unsurprisingly) is La Capitan. Man, I have so many questions for that one.

I think that Fanatic and Visionary are the ones that will answer the most mysteries.  As to which one I'm looking forward to the most well that's Guise and Scholar no doubt.

Tachyon was also revealed to have worked on a super suit and view Omnitron-X as just a machine.  What are the odds that in some timeline an injured Tachyon turned Omnitron tech into a super suit that worked even better than she imagined, and her brain is logical enough that she might not have noticed as the programming and her own brain became more and more intertwined.

I think you're on to something with that idea. :D
